JOSEF ALBERS
Untitled.

Color screenprint, 1968. 349x349 mm; 13 1/4x13 1/4 inches, full margins. Inscribed with the artist's name, a spurious title and "AP" in pencil by a later hand, lower margin. Printed by Sirocco Screenprints, New Haven. Published by Ives-Sillman, New Haven.

Originally issued in an edition of 75 and titled I-S a, the screens for this print were later used for an unsigned, un-numbered edition (see Danilowitz 184). The current work is from this unsigned, un-numbered edition; the pencil inscriptions were added later by another hand. Albers never produced a print with the title Homage to the Square: Mild Signal.
